I had my Chevy Malibu 2016 for 1 year and a piston in my engine broke. I was also getting an oil change every 10 days. The day I purchased this car my check engine light came on and every other month after that I would get a check engine light on the mechanic said it was for different reasons.

As soon as I started the car, the check engine light came on stating that the engine's emission is being reduced to where you can feel that the speed of the car is slowing down, but then the engine light went off a little while later. This happened on this past Sunday, now it comes on again two days later. I have been having this problem for about the past year and this is a brand new car. Its like every 2-3 months this issue occurs.

Car hesitates when pushing accelerator and begins to move forward slowly for a few seconds and then accelerates rapidly. This has happened on numerous occasions for the past few months and because it is only random when I take it to the dealer they can't duplicate it. This occurs when I am stopped at a stop light, pulling out of a parking space, or pulling out of a parking lot into traffic. I've been told it has something to do with a smart transmission because me and my wife have different driving happens. (which doesn't sound reasonable) last time it did this was yesterday and it seems to happening more frequently.

My vehicle has a recall 17019-stochastic pre-ignition (spi). My vehicle was inspected on or about 07/02/18 at guarantee Chevrolet in the city of santana, ca my vehicle was returned to me on or about 07/03/18. This condition has damaged my engine/motor which is in fact a result from the spi condition, the dealer is refusing to repair the damages from this narrative. I would like for the gwm system to be liable for all repairs pertaining to 17019-spi recall.

Around 50,000 miles sensor on throttle pedal went out and caused my car to stop accelerating with my kid in the car in the middle of the road driving. Next at 74,000 my 2016 Chevy Malibu lt 1.5L turbo has a cracked piston. I believe recall 17019 stochastic pre egnition should be linked to my VIN. First service stabilitrak comes on with a glowing icon showing a car with wavy lines underneath it. Then code reading P0301 (cylinder 1 misfire) went through the checklist, spark plugs, coils, fuel injectors all fine. Checked the compression of cylinder one and it's gone. Cylinder one has no compression it doesn't work. I saw this is happening to many people with the 1.5L turbo GM tried perfecting and still doesn't know how to fix besides replacing the piston or motor. Both times I was driving my car. Once I noticed the stabilitrak and check engine light I went home and left the car in the garage in hopes there wasn't damage. I researched and found out GM knew this whole time and no one told me. Their trying to say my car isn't on that recall but I strongly believe that my car is exactly that 17019 stochastic pre egnition recall.

Just over 37000 miles, car starts running funny, alot of vibration in steering wheel. I get out of the car one day, I leave it running, I get back in just a minute and a half later the engine light is flashing along with the stabilitrack light and the car is really running rough and steam or smoke is coming from engine compartment. I took it in to the dealership they told me I would have to pay a couple hundered dollars for diagnosis. I call back the next day they tell me engine compression is low and chances are it's a cracked piston ring. I asked what could possibly cause that in a 2016, not even a two year old car? I was told that these parts wear, I mean if I could tell you why it's happening or what the cause was there would never be any problems, just be glad it's covered under your powertain warranty. I've driven Chevy for twenty years and never had any problems like this, at the most serious problems have been the water pump. I've gone online since to search for info on this exact problem and there are so many complaints about this same problem. This sounds like a recall to me Chevrolet, GM.

The car stalls in traffic, losing all power. It doesn't start sometimes. Everytime I take it into the dealer the issue doesn't occur and they claim the computer is coming back clean. However, it dodent fo this all the time it can go weeks and drive just fine but at any given time will lose all power and shut off in the middle of traffic and done days take a very long time to start. It's very scary when your in traffic in the car shuts off then all the warning lights come on from stabilizer bar warning, to engine light. It's dangerous and scary with my child in the car at times on san diego highways. A car should not just shut off or take forever to start when everytime I take it to the dealer they claim the readings are fine. I also see I'm not the only one having this problem with this year and model. GM Chevrolet want be satisfied until someone is seriously hurt with this issue losing power while driving.

While driving on the street headed home the engine sign light came on the dashboard with a message trakstabil warning. The engine lost power but not completely. Stopped the vehicle on the side and opened the hood, nothing appeared in the engine compartment. Drove home and made an appointment to have vehicle checked at Firestone. Firestone informed us that one of the engine piston had blown. They advised that I take it to a GM/Chevy dealer as the vehicle has barely 40K miles and should be under powertrain warranty. We made an appointment at fremont Chevrolet, fremont, ca. The vehicle was delivered to the dealership on July 2, 2018. First they informed us that it should be covered since it has a blown engine piston. I have contacted the dealership numerous times and they tell us that they are still looking into it.
